CWR: The Archdiocese of Portland is home to Oregon Catholic Press<\/a>, which produces missals and liturgical music materials used by two-thirds of our country\u2019s Catholic churches. You have developed an interest in the liturgy\u2014in fact, you\u2019re writing a pastoral letter on the topic. Can you share with us some highlights of that letter?<\/p>\n

Sample: Yes. It is on pastoral music, and is just being released. We just hired a new director of sacred music, and this will be his road map. It will be my last contribution to the life of the Church in Marquette.<\/p>\n

In this letter I discuss the liturgical movement of the Church, what Vatican II said about liturgical music, documents released on the topic after Vatican II, as well as writings by popes about [liturgical music]. It is not my vision or my ideas; I try to present the Church\u2019s vision.<\/p>\n

It is clear that the Council calls for the liturgy to be sung. In recent decades we\u2019ve adopted the practice of singing songs at Mass. We take the Mass, and attach four hymns or songs to it. But this is not the Church\u2019s vision. We need to sing the Mass. It is meant to be sung. The texts of the Mass are meant to be sung.<\/p>\n

The Church provides us with chant, which is integral to liturgy, and should inspire the music of the Mass. We need to get away from singing songs at Mass and return to singing the Mass. And Gregorian chant is best suited to the Mass. The new director I hired [in the Diocese of Marquette] will introduce chant. It will be a huge shift for the people.<\/p>\n

I mean no criticism of our sacred musicians, who are very dedicated. It will be a shift for them as well.<\/p>\n

And, in addition to Latin chant, we also need to introduce chant in English. Although the Second Vatican Council said that chant should be given \u201cpride of place,\u201d one rarely hears it in parishes. Music is an important part of celebrating the Mass. As Pope Benedict has said, if we get the music right, we\u2019ll get the spirit of the Mass right.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
